Pope Francis was born on 17 December 1936 in Buenos Aires as the son of Piedmontese immigrants. As a child he grew up with his grandparents who lived a few meters away from the parental home. His native language is actually Italian as the Pope has explained in interviews. Spanish he learned as soon as he came out of the house and had contact with the children of the neighborhood and at school.
Pope Francis was elected on March 13, 2013, after his predecessor, Benedict XVI., had unexpectedly resigned his office on 28 February of the same year. Benedict XVI. now lives in largely seclusion in Mater Ecclesiae convent in the Vatican.
Oratio per Summo Pontifice
Oremus pro Pontifice nostro Francisco.
Dominus conservet eum, et vivificet eum, et Beatum faciat eum in terra, et non tradat eum in animam inimicorum eius.
Oremus.
Deus omnium fidelium Pastor et rector,
famulum tuum Franciscum, quem pastorem Ecclesiae tuae praeesse voluisti, Propitius respice:
as egg, quaesumus, verbo et exemplo, quibus praeest, proficere:
ut ad vitam, una cum grege Sibi Credito, perveniat sempiternam.
Per Christ, Dominum nostrum.
Amen.
